I'd like to see the ability to right-click on a field (C#) that is define like

private int m_iXXXXXXX;

and encapsulate access with a property.

This would be very handy, as the current workaround would be to modify the Refactor Encapsulate Field to have a get/set pair in the methods.

The workaround autotext item would be to modify Refactor Encapsulate Field (in C#) to be:

$end$public $SymbolType$ $GeneratedPropertyName$
{
get { return $SymbolName$; }
set { $SymbolName$ = value; }
}

Does it makes sense to add a separate refactoring for this?

i have done a small amount of C#, and have yet to work out when you should have a property rather than a normal pair of accessor methods, so for consistency i would have thought always using properties was easier, so you only need one autotext rule.

I hadn't spotted this before I posted an identical suggestion to the Beta forum. Using properties is preferable to accessor methods because it's a well-known idiom and is supported by the IDE as such.

It turns out the default autotext item for C# Refactor Encapsulate Field looks like what you want it to be - but there is a bug in adding the default per language items.
